GOTV! South Central has some of the lowest voter turnouts in the city and we need everyone to show up and show out. As a matter of fact, if we hit 25% voter turnout during this primary, I’ll shave my head. And I challenge my fellow electeds to do the same! Let’s go @isaacgbryan.bsky.social!

Today is not about one person. It is about uplifting a labor movement while honoring the contributions and sacrifices of the people who ensure our world gets fed. I also highlight the women of the movement whose work was invisible for far too long. So, thank you and happy #FarmworkersDay! 🌾✊🏿

Believe survivors. Believe women. I stand with Dolores Huerta, Ana Murguia, Debra Rojas, and everyone who has courageously shared their stories. Honoring survivors means we must demand accountability from abusive men in power and build communities that are just in both mission, and practice. (1/2)

Too young to vote when he ran in the CA Dem Presidential Primary, I walked precincts instead. When Rev. visited LA, my mom got me backstage at a CTA rally to meet Rev. Jesse Jackson in person. In five minutes, that exchange rewired my life. (1/3)
